7 | Sec. 14.7. Preservation of community water supplies. | ||||||
8 | (a) The Agency shall adopt rules governing certain | ||||||
9 | corrosion prevention projects carried out on community water | ||||||
10 | supplies. Those rules shall not apply to buried pipelines | ||||||
11 | including, but not limited to, pipes, mains, and joints. The | ||||||
12 | rules shall exclude routine maintenance activities of | ||||||
13 | community water supplies including, but not limited to, the use | ||||||

6 | appurtenances and utility owned structures. Those rules shall | ||||||
7 | include: | ||||||
8 | (1) standards for ensuring that community water | ||||||
9 | supplies carry out corrosion prevention and mitigation | ||||||
10 | methods according to corrosion prevention industry | ||||||
11 | standards adopted by the Agency; | ||||||
12 | (2) requirements that community water supplies use: | ||||||
13 | (A) protective coatings personnel to carry out | ||||||
14 | corrosion prevention and mitigation methods on exposed | ||||||
15 | water treatment tanks, exposed non-concrete water | ||||||
16 | treatment structures, exposed water treatment pipe | ||||||
17 | galleys; exposed pumps; and generators; the Agency | ||||||
18 | shall not limit to protective coatings personnel any | ||||||
19 | other work relating to prevention and mitigation | ||||||

21 | where protective coatings are utilized for corrosion | ||||||
22 | control and prevention to prolong the life of the water | ||||||
23 | utility asset; and | ||||||
24 | (B) inspectors to ensure that best practices and | ||||||
25 | standards are adhered to on each corrosion prevention | ||||||
26 | project; and |

2 | that might occur as a result of carrying out corrosion | ||||||
3 | prevention and mitigation methods including, but not | ||||||
4 | limited to, standards to prevent the improper handling and | ||||||
5 | containment of hazardous materials, especially lead paint, | ||||||
